Day 16- Broken "Dumb Dumb" Doll Makeup

Hey guys, so as promised part two, to my Red Velvet "Dumb Dumb" look. This is the basic makeup look from the music video, I just thought it needed to be fixed up a bit. By transforming the first cute doll look into this kind of creepy broken doll look is a good way to be a bit spooky for a Halloween. During the day wear the regular doll makeup and if you have a party at night, add the cracks in. How cool would it be to see Red Velvet perform "Dumb Dumb" with broken doll makeup? I bet they'd still look beautiful. Now this look is actually pretty simple.
1.) First, take an angled eye shadow brush and using black eye shadow, map out where you want your cracks and holes to be. I placed a big hole in the middle of my forehead, one on my cheek and one near my chin too. I also have a small hole on my lip. 2.) Take black face paint, and outline your holes and then feel free to fill them in. Next go over all the tiny cracks that you have anywhere. It was a bit hard to make tiny thin cracks because I had to hold my mirror while paint. 3.) Finally take grey eye shadow and pick a side you want a shadow to be. You're then going to lightly shade next to holes and cracks and wherever you feel fit. Now if you want you can mess up your hair and add some eye shadow to your face to make you look a bit dirty. I hope you liked this idea, until next time.

Day 17- Red Velvet "Dumb Dumb" Inspired Makeup Part 1.

So technically today is Day 16 of my 19 Days of Halloween, but the WiFi was down yesterday so I'll have two post for you. I really like the cute doll makeup look that Red Velvet had for "Dumb Dumb". Going as a doll would be a super cute costume for Halloween. If you get a group of friends maybe all of you would be able to go as Red Velvet. I was planning on filming a tutorial but my camera was dead, so I went along with the makeup look anyway. I used reference photos of the girls to help get this look.
You can use your regular foundation routine for this look. 1.) First you're going to want to prime your eyes with your favorite primer 2.) Take an orange-brown eye shadow and pat it down close to your lashes. Don't place the shadow all over your eye. Apply the shadow in the shape of a cat eye. Place on your bottom lash line and a little below it. 3.) Next line your eyes, keeping the eye liner close to your lash line. For the wing, I used an eye shadow brush to help guide me, first outlining the shape I wanted with black eye shadow and then using a felt tip pen over it. Make sure your eye shadow can still be seen around the cat eye. Also, they don't have eye liner on their bottom lashes, so don't apply any there. 4.) Curl your lashes and apply your favorite mascara. Make sure to show love to your bottom lashes and have them stand out. If you want, find the most doll like fake lashes and use them. 5.) Now time for the blush! You can use either a bright pink or red blush for this look, I used a rosy red blush. Smile and apply the blush on the apples of your cheeks. I then brushed it up following my natural cheek bone. 6.) You're first going to need to apply foundation or concealer on your lips. I then used a E.L.F's Lip Tint in "Berry" on my lips but you can use a red or pink lipstick. I applied the color on the center of my lip, so that would be the reddest, and then blended the color out onto the rest of my lips, so it had a gradient feel. 7.) The Hair! I combed my hair up into a ponytail then I twisted it and placed a hair tie in the middle and then continued to twist it, placing another hair tie at the end. They have their hair in braids, but I suck at braiding, so i found twisting it was easier.
If you want there are cool tutorials on YouTube to watch or you could wing it and just look at their pictures. I will be posting a part two, to the look, to give it more of a spooky feel. Off to go do that.

Day 18- The Walking Dead ( ft. SNSD)

Today I wanted to share one of my favorite zombie fanfics, The Walking Dead (ft. SNSD), written by AikCompany on AsianFanFics. It was written in 2012 and was completed in 2013, so it's bit old but I absolutely love it. The story takes place 5 years into the future, after an "Enigma" broke out and it follows three survivors. Jessica Jung, Kwon Yuri and Krystal Jung are traveling in an RV trying to survive, one day they go to a store and find a girl unconscious under a fallen shelf and decide to help her. Everything changes after that.
I'm going to warn you that many beloved characters will die and if you read the comments things will be spoiled for you. This story has many twist and turns, and there are two more stories following this one. I don't even know what to say because I don't want to give anything away but I will leave you with a quote from the story in hopes that maybe you'll want to check this story out.

If you want to read this awesome story click the link below and be sure to comment and tell me what you think of it.

19 Days Of Halloween

Most people think that it's pumpkin spice season but for me it's Halloween season. I've decided to have a 19 Days of Halloween. I'll be sharing spooky fanfics for you to read, creepy music videos, and some K-Pop themed Halloween costumes. I'm very excited for this.
To kick off 19 Days of Halloween, I wanted to share with you one of my favorite weird music videos with you. The song is V by Lee Jung Hyun and it came out in 2013. Though the song isn't really creepy, the music is pretty strange. A man crashes his car outside a creepy mansion on top of a hill, where inside the mansion is a doll house that looks just like the mansion. He ,being an idiot, goes into the mansion and finds the doll house. Inside the doll house is a little toy groom and suddenly a bride doll flies into the house scaring him and causing him to pass out. He then wakes up in bed with a ghost bride. Personally I would rather stay in my car instead of going into the house, which is filled with ghost. If you want to find out what else happens in the music video, check it out below and comment what you think this guy should have done to get rid of his ghost bride?

B.A.P's MATO PUZZLE

So after what seemed like forever B.A.P and TS have settled their law suit, and the boys are finally going to have a come back. TS Entertainment has released a "Mato Puzzle," which looks like a big word search. I've been looking at it all day and finding different phrases, and words. So far I've found these words and phrases; Extra, Angel, No Mercy, Forever With Me, Mato, 1004, The King Is Back, One, Power, Young, Wild & Free, Return, and Remain. I've also found other little words but I'm not sure what they mean. One thing I found in the puzzle stood out the most to me, in the fifth row from the top it says "BOOT_T."
Boot_T? Boot-tee. Boot? Is B.A.P trying to tell us something? I think B.A.P wants the booty, which I am completely fine with. Maybe B.A.P plans on having some booty dance for their comeback? I hope so, I love me so Bang Yong Guk booty. Who else is ready their comeback? Comment what you think the puzzle means.
